Catching Up...2019 April

 April 2019

We celebrated Easter. The kids colored eggs, we went to Church, we had a wonderful time at my brother's house with my parents, my brother's family, and his in laws.

Catching Up...2017 April and May

 In April 2017 we celebrated Easter with the family. Here is a picture of our family at Church and a picture of me with my Mom and Dad at their house. 

May always starts with May Day on May 1st. My Mom and I have been celebrating it for years by putting together little bouquets of flowers and taking them to friends. Traditionally these would be left on the door knob as a surprise, but we usually get caught, sometimes on purpose, and we get to visit with our friends. Some of them, we don't get to see too often, so it's always nice to chat for a bit.  The kids help us when they can and are willing.

One day in May the kids and I visited my friend Kat to pick leeks. Leeks are a type of wild onion that grows in the woods wild in the Spring. We love them. This year I pickled a bunch of them.

Of course I took lots of nature photos in the Spring. Here are a few of them.

In May we celebrated Mother's Day. My children are always wonderful at making me feel loved and appreciated!

And we spent some time playing at Center Lake and fishing.

The fish aren't always keepers, but the memories are!
